Also in Animated Shorts: Don’t Hug Me I’m Scared 2-Time. If you are a fan of twisted, dark humour, this will appeal to you. In Part II of what I hope will become a long series, Becky Sloan and Joseph Pelling gives us a glimpse into the abyss. Check it out-it’s catchy!

And in Midnight Shorts:

Kids and Explosions: Swear Words. I love this short for many reasons, mostly because it has the potential to make so many people angry. It is from France. It is a statement on American culture. It is almost spot on. I just wish it was a little longer. Well done, Thomas Vernay and Yann Wallaert!

If you are a Shorts person, like I am, you do not need me to convince you to go. Even though I have been watching Shorts seriously for possibly a decade, I am a child of Hanna-Barbera, so it still boggles my mind what animation can do and be. If you are new to watching Animated Shorts-keep your mind open and you won’t be disappointed.
